CFA Auger Production Run

30 augers total • Four cutting heads per size • In-house flights & couplings

Large batch of CFA augers assembled and staged in the yard

Overview

Large CFA auger order built in-house: 10 x 300 dia, 10 x 350 dia, 5 x 400 dia, and 5 x 450 dia, each size with four matching cutting heads per string of auger sizes.

Batch breakdown

  • 10 x 300 dia augers
  • 10 x 350 dia augers
  • 5 x 400 dia augers
  • 5 x 450 dia augers
  • 4 cutting heads per size (16 total)
  • 150mm dia parallel male/female hex couplings manufactured in-house
  • Flights pressed in-house for consistent profile

Scope & Methods

  • Fabricated 30 CFA augers across four diameters with consistent pitch and alignment.
  • Built 16 cutting heads (four per size) to match auger diameter and site requirements.
  • Pressed the flights in-house to keep pitch and profile consistent across the batch.
  • Manufactured 150mm dia parallel male/female hex couplings in-house.
  • Prepared the batch for dispatch as a matched set of augers and heads.
  • Fully hardfaced for added wear resistance over zig zag methods, cutting heads have wear blocks added to the first two flights for extra protection.

Highlights

Batch Consistency

  • Controlled pitch and alignment across 30 augers to keep drilling performance consistent.
  • Heads on 450mm dia with rock and clay teeth added as per customer request.

Production Ready

  • All sizes completed in one coordinated run to reduce lead time.
  • Finished sets staged for rapid load-out and delivery.

Outcomes

  • 30 CFA augers and 16 cutting heads delivered as a full-size set.
  • Flights pressed in-house with consistent pitch and alignment across all diameters.
  • 150 parallel male/female hex drive couplings.
